okay, i tried streaming the Obama-WeirLeshHart-Deadheads-Let's-Oil-Each-Other-Up show, but well, try as i might, i just couldn't connect, so i figured why not listen again to 11/16/70 since i KNOW i can listen quite easily to this beaut, no login required, and let me tell you, no Dark Star, no Caution, no Speedway Boogie, however, this is a wild show to be sure, the Big Railroad Blues is in my top ten for sure, some really groovy shit is happening in that song, damn, i LOVE it; in fact, the whole show is pretty damn sweet, not to mention Steve Winwood sitting in on the NFA>GDTRFB>NFA sequence, check it out folks:

You gotta let go you know Or else you stay The show is nice, and still going on. I like the way the pedal steel adds flavor so you don't have to make comparison so much to the missing man, who's gone because the big chief decreed it.

you have made a wonderful point

"not to mention Steve Winwood sitting in on the NFA>GDTRFB>NFA sequence,"

but what else must be mentioned in the dueling keyboard assault by young Stevie and Pigger during Hard2Handle.

Absolutely mind bending !!

Thanks for reminding me of this show !!!

Wonderful show and so much more relevant than the recent political wrangling......Pigpen for President!

Arb, you may want to check out the Traffic show two night later at the Fillmore East. Pretty cool and available to easy streaming at Wolfgang's.
